Welcome to Reiki without Borders! This is a monthly blog of my thoughts about Reiki and daily life. I hope those of you who read this will take time (a precious commodity) to reflect on it. I am a construction guy, and I know you must have a solid foundation to build a building that will endure! I feel that the five principles of Reiki are that foundation. I will not write them here, for they are already all over the Internet. I recite them to myself every day for five to ten minutes each, every day. I find it a comfort to me to start each and every day from a place of Love. I end each day by reflecting on the day, and thinking of how I can do better! I find myself feeling good about how I treated people and situations during the day, as well as times when I fell short of my goal. I reflect on the day and how I will do better tomorrow. I hope those of you who know the five principles think about them and how they can work in your life. To those of you who use them, I say well done and carry on. Please look for my February blog early next month. Until then, Live Life and Love Life. Joe
